Say you want something like a piece of a driveway from your childhood. Should you just go out, cut the concrete piece you want out, load it in a pickup and haul it home, put some new concrete in it's place where you made the hole. Would you be a thief?
Concrete caper: Pickens signature disappears
Okla. man cries theft, says billionaire oil tycoon to blame for removing slab
updated 2 hours, 20 minutes ago
OKLAHOMA CITY - As a youngster, Texas oil tycoon T. Boone Pickens scratched his name in wet concrete in the driveway of his grandmother's Oklahoma house.
Now the man who owns the century-old home is pursuing theft and vandalism charges against the 81-year-old billionaire, saying workers for Pickens came to the house recently without permission and removed the concrete slab with the well-known name.
David McCart, who bought the two-story, 17-room home in Holdenville nearly 20 years ago partly because of Pickens' signature said he went to the property to mow the grass on June 22 and noticed the 3-by-5-foot slab was missing.
